00:00Who will be the best and worst signing of this summer's transfer window?
00:03In the least shocking news ever, Premier League teams have been incredibly active,
00:07again, as they always are. But who will turn out to be the signing of the summer and who will
00:11be
00:11the flop? Let's start with the flop. Some honourable mentions. I can see Harry Wilson
00:15not fitting in at Leeds. Why is Ousmane Diamande's value to sporting Lisbon tanked so much in the
00:20space of a year? And why was he not starting for Ivory Coast at the World Cup? There have been
00:24some
00:24big money signings who have a lot to deliver to justify their fees. Tonali at Spurs has a serious
00:29job on his hands. Elliot Anderson has the impossible and unenviable job of replacing
00:34Rodri. But for me, the worst of the bunch is Morgan Rodgers. Now, if we're going off fun potential,
00:40Rodgers and Palmer is up there with the best in the league. But as the most expensive British player
00:44ever, I would want an attacker who is instantly your best and who can win you the league. I don't
00:49think Morgan Rodgers is that level. What about the best? In the interest of fairness, Chelsea's
00:54signing of Palestra could be their 2026 Marcus Alonso. The good bits, not the cart and Ronald
00:59defend bits towards the end. Oscar Migueza on a free to Palace came from nowhere during the World
01:03Cup, so flew under the radar a bit, but was a serious coup. Sangare to Brentford is great and
01:08Schlager to Forest is very Glasner and could be key for them. But James Trafford to Leeds is brilliant
01:13for all parties. It feels like Leeds haven't had a good goalkeeper since Nigel Martin. That's an
01:19exaggeration. Trafford gets to join a big club who are on the up. The fee is reasonable and Leeds could
01:24easily flip him for a profit in a few years. Well done, Leeds. Let's revisit this in a year's time
01:28and see
01:29where we landed.
